Goal For The Green

See where the cutest ladybugs live! Perhaps you have noticed this phrase at the end of my posts.  It is my tag line to my Cafepress store.

Back on May 14th, I told you about where my ladybug has landed.  My ladybug has been such a wonderful people greeter, that I have made her my official logo.

Do you love ladybugs as much as I do?  Now you can find my ladybug as the focus of my new squidoo lens.  You can capture the Goal For The Green ladybug for your very own.  She is available on a variety of products from t-shirts to ball caps, tote bags and mugs, and so much more.  Makes a striking gift anytime of the year.  So, stop by and see the new home this ladybug has landed.  She’s only available at Barbara’s Ladybug Cafepress store.

Back on January 26, 2009, I posted about Chad Maglaque’s plug-in windpower device. He calls it the Jellyfish. It is his entry to Google’s Project 10 to 100th. The project is a call for ideas, with the potential to change the world, by helping as many people as possible.

It is Maglaque’s hope that the Jellyfish becomes as affordable and acsessable to the world of renewable energy, as PC’s have become to the computer industry.  He entered the Jellyfish in the Google contest, to be able to obtain funding necessary for safety testing and certification.

To date, Google has received more than 150,000 enteries, representing 25 different languages worldwide.  It has taken longer than anticipated to review all those entries, and narrow the field.  Be sure to Sign Up to Be Automatically Notified By Google When Voting Opens!

Google will award $10 million amongst five innovative ideas that are capable of changing the world.  Maglaque’s You-tube entry is one of the most watched projects entered in  the contest.

Clarian Technologies, a research and development firm, focuses on developing technologies that help energy and transportation organizations.  Their goal is to help these organizations benefit and profit from the latest advances in energy related technology and information.  They have committed to helping Mr. Maglaque bring the Jellyfish Wind Appliance to market sometime in 2010.

Everything you want to know about the Jellyfish Wind Appliance,  along with questions and answers, can be found by clicking the link above.  Here is a helpful tutorial and Guided Tour on windpower technology that may be of interest to you also.

Best of luck to Chad Maglaque, and Special Thanks to Clarian Technologies.  They are definetly working toward many better tomorrows!
